iHouse

About
A Note from Current Residents:
iHouse is a living-learning community where members have a shared interest in social action and community service. In practice, individuals participate in various social action activities, and we share our interests with each other so that we can learn and support each other. This coming fall, many upperclassmen will take the PKG seminar SP.259, and we expect all incoming frosh to take this seminar as well. This seminar is designed to fit into frosh schedules, and will involve getting lunch with iHousers on Wednesdays, 1-2:30PM, and learning about environmental and food justice.
We have a (casual) application process where we hold information sessions for all potential residents who are considering living in iHouse. Come join us to find out what the i in iHouse stands for!”
iHouse is open to all who support and are committed to this mission.

New House Living Groups
All six physical houses are connected by the "arcade" on the first floor of the building. In addition, houses 1, 2, 3 and 4, and 5 and 6 are connected diagonally on the second through fifth floors.
The rooms in these six physical houses are divided into nine living groups, which, to make things confusing on purpose, are also called "houses”. New House is split into 9 different living groups: 5 cultural houses and 4 numbered houses. Click to learn more!
